Fling
The residents returned from
Winter Break
I with one thing
ipF / on their minds-
, ^r\ Spring Break.
i k Untill then they
m settled for a
1 catching up with
their friends
during the Spring Fling in
the Commons.
A sweet reunion
was sweetened further
with cookies and cola
courtesy of TPB.
Ragae music got
the residents on
their feet. Some
resident's feet
weren't so reliable though
when it came to how low
they could go under the
limbo bars. As one
residental limboist put it
"it's all in the balance".
Lori, a
junior HRM
major, saw the
need for such a
function as being the opportunity to get rid
of some excess
energy before the Spring
semester began. "There is
nothing worse than getting 'Spring Fever' before
spring even begins", Lori
said. For
whatever the
reason the residents never
pass up the opportunity to get
together and relieve some pent
up frustration. -

All work and no play made
the residents dull students. But all
play and no work seemed to be the
case for the residents who hung
out in the Commons, located between the two Towers. On any
given night one could find a
Domino game or people socializing
rather than studying. Students who
did not have transportation to leave
campus for entertainment, the
Commons was the solution . During the afternoon, the Commons
presented a place of serenity. Some
residents, if they weren't in class,
went to the University Center and
watched television; others ate
lunch; some hung out in the Arbor
or the University Center Satellite.
Residents saved their studying for
the library. After dark, they studied
in their rooms. Late in the evening,
was when students found themselves venturing to the Commons, to
check out the scene and join in on the
fun and games rather than leave the
dorms.
On friday nights one could
find the Good News Gospel Choir
rehearsing in the Commons, Which
started off with a Bible Study. Many
students who were not actually pari
of the choir but hung out in the ( om
mons enjoyed and joined in on the
singing. So, for those without transportation or those who just wanted
to hang out around the residencce
halls, theCommonswasa great place
to relax, unwind and just have fun.-
